Child Labor.
Boston Transcript.


In the of the young there can be no two
opinions to the fearful strain that must come
upon them, both physically and mentally, in
prematurev accustoming themselves to the in
1uences of factory life and there is much of en-
couragement to be gathered from the facts de-
veloped at the hearing at the State house. yes
terday, before the special legislative committee,
on the subject of child labor. 1t appears. from
the evidence submitted, that the laws relative to
the employment of minors seldom wilfuly
violated In this commonwealth the part of
the corporations. and that W here children under
the prescribed age employed it is due to
the greed sometimes, perhaps, the necessity
of the parents. who instruct their children TO
give the proper-or rather, improper-answer
when their age is asked. Not only must a child
be fourteen years of age to be allowed to labor
in a Massachusetts manufacturing, mechanical,
mercantile establishment, except during
school vacation season. but he must be able to
read and write in 1.-The English language" The
words within quotations notable feature of
the act passed last winter, and they were in
serted compromise to meet the objections
Of those who held that person able to read and
write in any language could not be called
iliterate. The greatest difficulty has been
found among the French Canadians. The
children of these people, under the new law,
must be taught to read and write in English,
which will be gain in more ways than one.
ipasmuch it will tend to Americanze race
of people which is slow to loosen the ties which
bind 1t to fatherland.

MGLYNN'S EXCOMMUNICATI
AN Explanation by Cardinal Gibbons of the
Absurd Accounts Published.

An Explanation by Cardinal Gibbons of the
Absurd Accounts Published.
Baltimore
The publication in several newspapers of a
form of anathema alleged to have been used by
Pope Leo XIII, in the accommodation of the
Rev. DIR. Edward MGlynn, or New York, has
called forth letters of inquiries from readers of
the Sun as to the authenticity of 1.-The terrible
curse" as it is called.
Cardinal Gibbons speaking to a reporter of
the Sun on the subject yesterday said no spe-
cial form OF accommodation is used by the
Pope. There is simply an accommodation,
major or minor. the former, of course, being the
more serious. The accommodation deprives
the person excomhunicated of certain PRIVILEGES
and prerogatives in the church. and imposes
tain penalties. The deprivations and penalties

cree. In the earlier days of the church

municated from all social intercourse,
even with the members of his own family. The

execution of such DEGREES impossible and they
have been greatly modified The Cardinal said

occasion of the accommodation of Victor
Emmanuel by Plus x. which occurred when the
Cardinal was vicar apostolic of North Carolina

THERE is complaint that the news
papers don't do enough toward booming
the town. Why, bless your heart,
they're doing it every day in the week,
while the rest of you are lying back and
finding fault. What has given Manka-
to such good reputation throughout the
State as an enterprising, go-ahead, bust
ness place, if it hasn't been the newspa-
pers2 The newspapers have done their
share and will continue to do 30, and
probably won't get much credit when
the bright future of the city is fully re-
allied. They won't find fault however
and will go right along doing all they
can for the pubic good. The press can
do great deal of good, but there are g
few things it can not do. For instance,
it can't kill off the old leeches who are
doing their hest to lock the wheels Of
the advancing interests of the city. II
can't shorten the lives of the old fellows
whose presence makes it necessary tc
hold star chamber sessions when consid.
ering some new enterprise or innova.
ton for the city's good. It can't prevent
the old fossils from holding on to theil
real estate and advancing the prices ell
out of reason whenever q stranger comeI
into the town to invest. It can't make
public-spirited citizens out of men tina
are mot built that way" and it cam
make them shell out literally when BY
so doing many new enterprises might b.
secured for the city. These are some o.
the revolutions the press can not brinj
about, but what it can do for the ad
vancement of the city's interests, at tina
1t will always be found industriously en-
gagged.
